My sword

All by himself, my son made a sword.  He used a plastic toy knife and a paper towel tube.  I have to admit, I'm impressed.

I used TaDa paper, Thickers, eyelets and Lily Bee Design alphas.

Some faves

My son really liked this paper.  When he was wearing his favorite shirt, and I noticed it matched the paper, we had a photo shoot.

This was also my first time using Liquid Pearls.  I fear I will own every color soon.

Jillibean Soup paper, brads.

HIMCR #138 - What's Buggin' Ya?

This week at HIMCR we used digi stamps from Alota Rubber Stamps.  I let my kids pick EVERYTHING about the Valentine's Day cards they will receive.  (This way I know they will like it.)

My older son chose the butterfly.

My younger son chose the cake.  He recently saw an episode of 'Peg + Cat' where bees helped to make a honey cake.

On each card I used PrismaColor markers and the George and Basic Shapes cartridge for the heart shape.

Please link a project to the HIMCR blog this week.  Have a good day!

Greetings

This is the first time the boys are petting Logan.

There is Fancy Pants and DCWV paper and brads.

Uh-oh

The way things interpret things is entertaining.  I told him 'A lot of money goes into the gas tank."  This is not what I meant.

He tried his best to explain.  I did my best not to laugh.

I used DCWV and Recollections papers, Martha Stewart circle cutter, ink and brads.  There is some journaling along the edge of the circle.

Valentines Card

This year my husband was traveling on Valentine's Day.  So I snuck this into his luggage before he left.

We have a thing with ducks.  I used an Action Wobble under the duck.  Sesame Street Friends was the cartridge I used.

HIMCR #137 - Use 3x Patterned Paper!

This week at HIMCR we used 3 or more patterned paper on a project.  We also used DCWV card stock.  I was able to use all DCWV paper. 

The paper is from the DCWV Boy Stack (8.5x11)  The card stock is from various DCWV stacks.  There is also some journaling in the lower left corner about the face he's making.



I hope you submit a project this week.  DCWV is doing a give away with 3 Winners!  $100 in cardstock each!

Up words

Over the New Year's holiday the boys played Up Words "with" me.

HIMCR #136 - Super Scraps Saturday

Walking...clubs?

The boys went for a stroll with some interesting walking sticks, golf clubs.

This is only a mix of paper scraps on a Paper Studio background.  I made this at a Crop to Stop MS.

Getting Gas

The kids had their own tools to fill their cars with gas-golf clubs.

I used Echo Park and DCWV paper with some brads and Lily Bee alphas.  I made this at a Crop to Stop MS.

OWH Card Bowl Day 3

It is Day 3 of the OWH Card Bowl and today's challenge is a sketch.  Here is my take:

I used Best Creation paper and Lily Bee Design alphas.

I still haven't decided which team to root for in the Super Bowl.  Have a great day!

Hi again.  It's day 2 of the OWH card bowl during Super Bowl weekend.  This challenge is to use the color brown on a masculine card.

The star paper is from Momenta and the sentiment is from Scrappy Moms.
